2004/05 Australian domestic season thread

That was excellent. I love seeing Tassie win, they are such troopers.

 

[Josh]

Where are all the bulls supporters??

 

[vic_orthdox]

probably sitting there thinking "at least we got further than the vics"


well done to tassie as well.

 

[Jono]

Well done Tassie.

The reaction from all of them was great, but I thought Bevan being so delighted was great. He's been through awesome international run chases and World Cup wins, but he legitimately was thrilled with the victory. Top stuff.

 

[Mister Wright]

Well done Tasmania.

There were 2 positives to come out of that game for Queensland. 1 Maher is a genious. 2 Phillipson is a cricketer of the future, his innings was beyond his years. Apart from that, there weren't many positives at all. We lost the game early, when we were only 106 off 50 overs. Maybe there was more in the pitch than first thought, however I think the Tassie bowlers bowled really well - Butterworth excluded. Queensland were clearly a bowler short.

it comes to something that Tasmaina will a Competition what next Somerset win something

OK that taking it a bit too far

No too far would be Worcestershire.

Justin Langer has just blasted a 111 in the first session before lunch against NSW and has 134* off 113 balls, Magill has bowled 5 overs for 0/68.

Go Justin. 19 fours and 5 sixes in just 37 overs.

RRRRGHHHHHHH Im frustrated with Shaun Marsh. Hes such a talented, classy player, but just isnt showing his potential when he gets a spot. So again I go RRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHH! But we're heading for the finals, so its looking good.

Meanwhile, Shaun Tait getting wickets, and Watsons playing? Is he just playing as a batsman then?

 

[Josh]

ooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh HODGEY!!!!!!!!!! Why must you be ignored forever, HODGEY??

 

[mavric41]

ooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh HODGEY!!!!!!!!!! must you be ignored forever, HODGEY??

Yes

 

[Crazy Sam]

if queensland win outright they move back into the top 2 with 2 matches remaining.

the bulls-warriors game in round 10 at the gabba should be a cracker, it could very well shape the final.

 

[)Swing(]

And ol' Anger-tron ends up with 0/125. Best days cricket ever.

 

[chris.hinton]

It is nearly over then?

Batsman only.

I saw most of the first 2 days of that game. Cullen has bowled exceptionly well. The pitch is one where you never really feel 'in' no player except for Phillipson (in the 2nd innings has looked comfortable). Phillipson is one for the future, very classy innings.

 

[mavric41]

looks like Mitchell Johson is also coming on with both bat and ball. I hope he can stay fit. Qld and Australia need a good, quick left armer.

 

[mavric41]

Lehmann pushing his test tour hopes with 104 of 85 balls, bowled by Johnson.

 

[mavric41]

Bevan rubbing the Australian selectors in the dirt with yet another 100, so far 129 no.
You got to think, will they pick him for the Ashes tour?

I hope not.

 

[mavric41]

I hope not.

Me too, but he is scoring a shedload of runs. He wouldn't be the worst backup.
